> An empty system identifier in an external entity declaration causes the
> entity to be treated as internal. This appears to be because
> DTDScanner::scanEntityDef () doesn't distinguish between a NULL pointer for
> the system identifier and the first character of the system identifier being
> NULL.
> Meanwhile, production [11] of Section 2.3 of the XML Specification states
> that a system identifier can be empty. So, as best I can tell, the following
> <!ENTITY foo SYSTEM "">
> should be declarating an external entity.
